Purpose
The group's official website states that their purpose is to prepare the way for the coming of the English avatar, who is variously identified as The Hooded Man, Woden, HelgiH and Kalki.
"Woden's Folk was set up to prepare the way for the coming of The Hooded Man who is the Crowned and Conquering Son who will incarnate when the Hanged God is swallowed by the Wolf. This astronomical event will take place at the Winter Sunwend of Year 12 : Age of Ing (2012)."
Woden's Folk is a unique Wodenist Movement that rejects the old archetype of the Hanged God in favour of The Avenging Son, seeing this as the archetypal god-image for a new world-age which it calls the Age of Ing or Age of the Son ("Ing" means "son of"). It refers to this figure as Widar the Avenger, the Woodland Warrior, and connects him with The Hooded Man in the Robin of Sherwood television series.
In addition, the group opposes England's multiracial society.

Famous quotes containing the word purpose:
“I don’t think life is absurd. I think we are all here for a huge purpose. I think we shrink from the immensity of the purpose we are here for.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“I don’t like to be idle; in fact, I often feel somewhat guilty unless there is some purpose to what I am doing. But spending a few hours—or a few days—in the woods, swamps or alongside a stream has never seemed to me a waste of time.... I derive special benefit from a period of solitude.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
“There are a sort of men whose visages
Do cream and mantle like a standing pond,
And do a willful stillness entertain,
With purpose to be dressed in an opinion
Of wisdom, gravity, profound conceit,
As who should say, “I am Sir Oracle,
And when I ope my lips let no dog bark!””
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
